Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 2079: Who Is the Client

With Cheng Su and Old Master Cheng fainting, the Cheng family was in chaos, some were getting medicated oil, some were pinching acupuncture points, and others were calling for a doctor.

Cheng Su was young, Qi Taiguo was right by her side, so as soon as she fell, he pinched her acupuncture point hard, then waved aromatic oil under her nose, and she woke up shortly thereafter.

Old Master Cheng, on the other hand, was already elderly and had fainted multiple times before, so this time it lasted quite a bit longer.

The crowd scrambled to carry him back to his room to lie down, and while waiting for the family doctor to arrive, they didn’t forget to measure his blood pressure.

Ning Ge witnessed this and sighed.

Whether or not Cheng Yuying and her husband are Old Master Cheng’s niece and nephew, he didn’t know, nor had he anticipated this connection, so he hadn’t bothered to investigate Cheng Yuying’s background.

But if that child was indeed the one Mi Shaoan had let go, and if that child was related by blood to the Cheng family, then Cheng Yuying being part of the Cheng family wasn’t far off.

Is this just a coincidence?

Ning Ge had never seen such a coincidence.

He looked at Cheng Su crying on Qi Taiguo’s shoulder and thought of what Cheng Yaozu said — it truly was a coincidence!

Cheng Su’s heart was shattered.

She had considered the reasons for her orphanhood, whether her parents had abandoned her, whether it was an accident, whether she was lost, but she had never thought they had been murdered.

And hearing what Ning Ge said, they were merely honest and simple-minded teachers, who could they have offended, what kind of hatred led them to be killed?

Who entrusted Mi Shaoan?

A stream of clarity pierced through Cheng Su’s muddled mind. She lifted her head from Qi Taiguo’s shoulder, walked up to Ning Ge, and sharply asked, “Who, who entrusted him? Who did he accept the commission from?”

Ning Ge looked at her with eyes that were somewhat compassionate and also slightly perplexed.

In fact, he had heard the name of the client from Mi Shaoan, and he found it somewhat unbelievable and incomprehensible, deeply puzzled.

Qi Taiguo noticed Ning Ge’s expression, furrowed his brow, sensed something was off; it was Ning Ge’s confusion that made him feel uneasy, that what came next would utterly devastate Cheng Su.

“The doctor is here!”

The Cheng family’s exclusive GP arrived hurriedly with a nurse, and Cheng Su temporarily refrained from pressing further, instead following the doctor into Old Master Cheng’s room, watching him check, inject, etc.

Ning Ge saw this, pulled Qi Taiguo aside, and asked him, “How is Chiang Qing right now?”

“Not good. The bullet passed through her head; the doctor said even if she recovers, her mobility will be impaired, and her memory might be confused and deteriorated, she can’t even speak properly. I was just about to find you, to ask about how the Shen Family should handle this woman.” Qi Taiguo’s eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness and he said, “She cannot be kept alive. If her physical condition allows her to escape legal punishment, then I want to hand her over to the Shen Family.”

Qi Taiguo had long been informed about Chiang Qing’s adultery from Cheng Su, and he also knew Shen Rong’s background well, hence he wanted to leverage his anger.

Ning Ge pressed his lips and said, “If it were before, I would have been eager to let the Shen Family handle her. But now, I think we must pause for a moment.”

Chiang Qing cannot die yet!

“What do you mean?” Qi Taiguo frowned, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Ning Ge laughed, a laugh mixed with tears, and said, “Do you know who the client for the Cheng Yuying couple’s incident and Mi Shaoan is?”

Qi Taiguo rolled his eyes, why would he need to ask him?

“If I had known…” he blurted out, his face suddenly changed: “Could it be?”

Ning Ge nodded heavily.
